Miley Cyrus – Jaded (Audio, Lyrics, Video)

Miley Cyrus premieres the official music video for the Greg Kurstin-produced “Jaded” song from the project – Endless Summer Vacation. Listen, stream, read the lyrics, buy the track.

“Jaded” tells a story of regret and missed opportunities in a failed relationship. Miley seems to be admitting to not speaking up about what was wrong, but now that she’s had time to reflect, she feels weighed down by the burden of what went unsaid.

In terms of the song’s production, “Jaded” features a smooth pop punk beat with a catchy chorus that contrasts with the melancholic lyrics. The verses are delivered with a slower, more introspective cadence, while the chorus has a more upbeat energy. The song’s production also features a prominent bassline that drives the song forward, with subtle instrumental flourishes layered on top to create a rich sonic texture while Miley’s vocals are emotive and raw, adding to the emotional weight of the lyrics.

Miley Cyrus has always had a talent for writing deeply emotional lyrics that resonate with her fans and “Jaded,” is a strong addition to Cyrus’s discography as it is reminiscent of some of Cyrus’s previous ballads like “Wrecking Ball” and “The Climb,” which similarly use powerful vocals and emotive lyrics to explore complex emotions.

The track’s existence was known to the public when a photo of the song was posted by an Intern from Columbia Records.

Lyrics

[Verse 1]
I don’t wanna call and talk too long
I know it was wrong, but never said I was sorry
Now I’ve had time to think it over
We’re much older and the bone’s too big to bury

[Pre-Chorus]
Oh, isn’t it a shame that it ended like that?
Said goodbye forever, but you never unpacked
We went to Hell, but we never came back

[Chorus]
I’m sorry that you’re jaded
I could’ve taken you places
You’re lonely now and I hate it
I’m sorry that you’re jaded

[Verse 2]
You’re not even willin’ to look at your part
You just jump in the car and head down to the bar ’til you’re blurry
Don’t know when to stop, so you take it too far
I don’t know where you are and I’m left in the dark ’til I’m worried
Ooh, and it hurts me

[Pre-Chorus]
And it’s a fuckin’ shame that it ended like that
You broke your own heart, but you’d never say that
We went to Hell, but we never came back

[Chorus]
I’m sorry that you’re jaded (Jaded)
I could’ve taken you places (Places)
You’re lonely now and I hate it
I’m sorry that you’re jaded

[Bridge]
I won’t lie, it won’t be easy
When somebody new is on your body
I’ll change my number but keep your T-shirt
I don’t mind it’s torn up and faded

[Chorus]
I’m sorry that you’re jaded (Jaded)
I could’ve taken you places (Places)
You’re lonely now and I hate it
I’m sorry that you’re jaded

[Outro]
I’m sorry that you’re jaded
